Or it could be that people who love this show expect a consistent story and writing. If you just expect people to put stuff together themselves then don't even bother with next season. Just show Dany, Cerci, and John riding dragons, some some pretty crap, make the Night King explode, then pontificate online that viewers should just enjoy the amazing things they're being shown and laugh off anyone who calls it out for what it is; bad writing.

I saw at minimum an undead bear on-fucking-fire drop from a mysteriously small dagger to the shoulder, I can't imagine they just had a BearBane dagger floating around amongst the party. It being dragonglass (which they clearly were carrying around, see last episode) was the most obvious answer. I'm also 99% sure the Hound dropped his hammer and yanked out one or two more.

EDIT: Saw your edit, keeping the pics/gif in because they're cool.

Here's another clip:

Very clearly not a forged weapon, nice and chiseled like obsidian.
Here's another, specifically Tormund:

And here be Sandor's dagger/axe/pick thingie:

Can't find a specific pic of the Bear being stabbed, but they all very clearly had either Valyrian or Dragonglass. Gendry is the only one who showed up half-assed.

I was just reading some fan theories and someone brought up the fact the Night King's dragon is even more ominous because gives the NK mobility and he now can travel anywhere in Westeros and find piles of dead bodies from all the battles that have gone on and raise the dead to found a new army. So, it might not just be the slogging wights coming from the north, now fighting might happen on many fronts

1) Littlefinger asks Sansa that if she and Arya were plotting to kill each other, who's side would Brienne take?
then Sansa sends Brienne away to Kings Landing.
wtf? why would sansa think Brienne would take Arya's side?
............

It was planned to lull LF into thinking that Sansa was still being played. And it set up a cliff hanger since Brienne being away meant the Stark girls could kill each other without Brienne to stop them.

I'm going to presume Arya wouldn't let an influential face go to waste, not with Cersei still needin hers. I can see her telling the guards 'Take this snake carcass to my chambers. I'm not done with him yet.'
